The advantage of all that mechanical harmony is a brilliant set of numbers: 148.6kW@13,200rpm and 117.6Nm of torque at 10,800rpm, channelled through a bi-directional quickshifter for smooth upshifts and downshifts without using the clutch or throttle. The shift linkage can also be easily set for ‘reverse-pattern’ for GP-style shifting on the racetrack.

The GSX-R’s are at the front line of electronics with a six-axis inertial measurement unit supporting functions including cornering ABS and a Motion Track Brake System to minimise rear-wheel lift during under hard braking.
The Suzuki’s have a 10-level traction control system, while further personalisation is available via the three-mode Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (S-DMS) system to allow riders to tailor the engine’s power delivery and response to their preferred setting.
